A large number of friends were present. Short addresses were made by Rev. A. t Shcr rell and Judge? J. tv. Savage, and the sing ing was led by Miss Pennell, whom we all remember as on of the sweetest ot Trinity's bygone cholrster. The bishop was happy in the fuUflllraent of another of his cherished projects. His people and friends rejoiced with him and altogether It waa an occasion long to be remembered. "The cathedral and hospital were conse crated within one month of each other, and they stand together as grand memorials of Bishop Clarkson snd hi swork. v "It wss the bishop' first Intention that tha hospital should be devoted exclusively to tha care of children, but In a short time th constitution wss so amended aa to permit tho admission of adults, and the first yearly report ending March 1, 1S84, gave the number of children treated aa U2, and adults thirty -alght. "Upon th completion of th hospital building th whole property was transferred to the cathedral chapter of tu diocese, which assumed Its nominal control. After Bishop Clarkson's death In March 1884, Mrs. Clarkson was mads its life manager, and Its present position and success is largely due to her absolute devotion to Its work and Interests. It was then re-named Th Bishop Clarkson Memorial Hospital for Children,' and in May, 1892, was In corporsted under.that name when it passed under the control of a board ot trustees consisting of Right Rev. George Worth ington, Hon. J. M. Woolworth, Mr. Herman Kounisa, Mr. F. H. Davis. Mrs. R. H. Clarkson and Mrs. A. J. Poppleton. Dr. John E. Summers. Jr., was for a number Of years tha chief surgeon and head of Its medical staff. His work In connection with It Is widely known snd to him Is due the high reputation of tha hospital aa a train ing school for nurses. t aaue tn Ita Nasu. "In 18S0 th full lot adjoining tha hospital on the east was purchased, and th small cottage on it waa renovated and furnished for th us of th nurses. It waa th lu- ' tentlon at that time to erect a large ad dition to tha old hospital building, but that plan was afterward abandoned and the effort of th board were turned toward procuring a larger and better alta on which to build and obtaining th best plans for a commodious building which should have all th modern applisnces for th handling and cr of tha aick and injured. This spot on which we stand waa selected from many others which wer considered, and li June, 1906, it waa purchased for the new hospital site, and In th fall of 1907 the foundations were laid. Bishop Clarkaon'a Own Story. . "I cannot more appropriately close this short sketch than by quoting from Bishop Clarkson's own story of th very beginning of his hospital, which he told us on the night of its consecration. It Is more pouch ing when we remember how barely he was granted his hesrfs desire. He said: "In 1868, shortly arter I came to Omaha to live, Pwas In New York attending the general convention of the church and Dr. Muhlenberg, the foimder of St. L.uke's hospital In that city, asked me to make an address on its anniversary. I had often visited the hospital and had been especially touched by the lovely and well ordered children's ward In that great institution and had made tip my mind that If God spared my life I woulc certainly do what I could to found a chllds' hospltsl. in Omaha. Accordingly, In my address to the large crowd of people that filled the chapel of the hospital I said that I desired very much to see such an institution in the city of my home before my episcopate had ended, and, that If I jould get a nest eKg for the fund It waa sure to grow. A dear little child who was present and heard ma say this returned to her home and opmicd her mite chest, where her little savings had been accumulating, arid gave the con tents, about $5. to me with tho request that I would make tills the neat egg for the chllds' hospital fund, and I did so. That little child, who has grown to be a woman, is present at this dedication of the hospital, which has been erected with the fund that haa gathered around her little nest egK. I pray the Lord may fill ua with the spirit of charity and unselfishness and to make us all willing to do what we can In this life for the relief nn happiness of others." Twenty-Fire Years After. "Today, twenty-five years later, we hsve j assembled ourselves together for another service of thanksgiving to Him who has i furthered us In all our doings with His continual help and to Implore His blessing upon our work of erecting this new and larger hospital. "Wo are saddened at this time by th absence of those faithful members of the board of trustees who have passed away before th accomplishment of the object for which they so steadfastly worked. They were associated , with us for many years in the business management of the hoeptlal and we remember them with gratitude and affection. It wis the earnest wish of Bishop Worthlngton to celebrate with us the lay ing of this corner stone, but Providence ordered It otherwise. We miss his genial presence here and his helpful words, but we cannot but feel that the blessing which ho so often Invoked upon this work rests upon it and will remain with It! y'Thls, above all other occasions brings to our minds -and hearts the loving remem brance of Bishop and Mrs. Clarkson. They wer the true founders of this hospital. Thvy began the work in faith and con tinued In ' the spirit of charity and un scIiIhI, liens to the day of their deaths. The power of their Influence and their example has kept It up anil curried tt on tlu-nugh years of patient waiting, until at last we can see 'the bright dawn ot auccess light ing up th way to the fulfillment of all their hopes and plans, and th Lord being our helper, we will build here a memorial hospital worthy of their love aiid benedic tion, which shall be called by their name." Addreaa by Bishop William. A hymn followed, after which Bishop Williams delivered a brief and Impressive address In which he characterised this as an epoch-making day. "We rropose to finlslPthls work In mem ory of Its founder." said Bishop Williams. "Tou may ask why Is It that w propose to expend here $160,000 in building and fur nishing this structure? It Is because Jesus Christ still works, ministering to and heal ing the sick of body and soul, through the agency of physicians, nurses ar.d medicine and for the forglvness of our sins. It I because he wishes us to bring back to men health, wholeneas and holiness. Let us write her the loving history of our deeds.
